GDB TUI doesn't build

Hi - looking at the 2001-01-08 CVS, GDB TUI doesn't build
[Does TUI actually work?] Anyway find_line_pc in several
gdb/tui/tui*.c files doesn't agree with the actual definition in gdb/.

BTW configure on i686-linux also doesn't seem to define USG and
HAVE_TERM_H which are necessary for tui.o to be built.

Cheers.

The maintainer of the TUI is HP (from the gdb/MAINTAINERS file):

tui Technical Contact Point wdb@cup.hp.com

They've contributed it some time ago.

It seems that the person who was maintaining it is not around anymore.
Maybe it got a little bit outdated.

Perhaps you would be interested in trying to fix it?

Or maybe you can run the GDB GUI (Insight) instead.

Or use one of the other available GUI front-ends for GDB, including
GVD and DDD.

I ran into these two FIXMEs in the top-level configury. The one which
tests the host is moved into the per-host section, and the one which sets
up GDB_TK is moved into the per-target section.

Opinions? Comments? This would need to be committed in both the src and
gcc repositories, I believe, but since the patch deals with GDB/Insight,
it was suggested that it be hashed over here first.
